Jamaal Williams 2016 and Tyler Allgeier in 2020 and 2021.

So we can add RB to the long list of recruiting failures under Kalani.

Think LJ may have gotten there if not injured several games but not a given even then.

I don’t like that Greg is already ruling out a 370 yard effort from LJ in the

Disagree. We are heavy on RB by committee. You have to be elite to not have an

1000 yard rusher is a good sign of a good RB...

Coug

When we are playing 3 RBs a game, do you expect all 3 to have 1000+ yards?

spidercoug

3:33pm

If you are playing 3 RB's... you don't have a good RB.

Coug

You and Das_Countach just like to complain. I'll leave you to your cying

This is a legitimately awful take

I have no qualms with having a 1996 style backfield (McKenzie & Jenkins)

As definitively as your statement is written, it's not true.

Homercles

Both points can be simultaneously true. I would love to have a 1996

gopman

Yeah, a backfield like that would be epic.

It's a sign of a RB staying healthy for a change

Indy Coug

Brooks maybe... Martin I doubt it

Coug

3:37pm

Good point. Allgeier and Jamaal are the two RBs to actually be healthy all year

typically when you have 3 NFL QBs for the majority of that time you don’t

And 2 of our NFL drafted QB's had an NFL drafted RB... weird

Coug

it probably helps those guys stay healthy. maybe my first post is wrong and it

Coug just has to find his little nuggets to piss about in the midst of a 10-2 season

Indy Coug

It's just stating the obvious.

Coug

3:38pm

Obvious if you lack critical thinking skills!

All good information added to the conversation... thank you shimmy

Coug

3:42pm

Sorry I didn’t make dumb proclamations about LJ Martin being a failed recruit.

shimmy

3:43pm

Well... thanks for your input and data to back up your points... appreciate your input

Coug

3:43pm

Link to the data you provided or do we just get dumb declarations?

shimmy

3:48pm

2 1000 yards rushers under Kalani in 9 seasons, 6 seasons in which Kalani hasn't had a 1000 yard rusher

Coug

3:49pm

By data I meant data reasonably related to the conclusion.

shimmy

So I mostly agree with the recruiting fail as Williams was a Bronco recruit and Allgeier

See... here's my problem, I agree with you up to a point...

Coug

We have two RBs in the NFL (3 if you count Taysom). Other than Alabama, there are few teams

You state that BYU runs the ball well and contradict your self with BYU fails

Is NIL playing a part? You are correct that this staff isn't the best at

I don't care if carries are spread around as long as the running game works

It seems to me more of an issue of health, which may be partially a coaching

We are a year, maybe 2, into a revamped S&C program so maybe we start to see less injuries.

Ugh

Well considering Jamal Willis ended a 20 year streak in 1992, what does that tell you about BYU's need

A Rod’s o lines have been sub par with run blocking.

Or his ankle. He's not a speedster, but seemed quite a bit slower than last yr.
